A wake-up call for investors and idealists.
Join the global movement that truly enables climate finance through meaningful investment in digital carbon assets alongside countries and institutions.
THE SOLUTION
Introducing the Climatecoin Ecosystem.
A transparent way to finance sustainable projects and see them prosper.
Market digitalization.
The ClimateCoin Ecosystem allows the digitalization of the carbon credit market within a transparent and accessible platform.
Intelligent digital credits.
The ecosystem provides these digital credits with intelligence to enable new purposes that aren't viable in conventional markets.
Increased transparency.
This intelligence eliminates intermediaries, provides more transparency to the market and increases the recirculation capacity of the generated profits.
Sustainable Development Goals project financing.
A structural part of the ClimateCoin ecosystem is to utilize a percentage of financial transactions to be given back to SDG project developers.
Carbon footprint reduction.
The ecosystem allows individuals and investors to contribute to reducing the planet's carbon footprint.
Clean energy rewards.
The ecosystem allows users of clean energy sources to earn ClimateCoins.
Decision power.
Investors have a say in decisions that affect the ecosystem itself as a way of reinforcing the financial incentives.
THE COMPONENTS
A confident step in the right direction.
Our Green Climate DAO Ecosystem allows us to support durable and just climate action.
THE COMPONENTS
ClimateCoin.
A ClimateCoin is a digital carbon credit.
THE COMPONENTS
ClimateCoin can be used in 3 fundamental manners:
- Kept as an investment asset with the expectation of future performance.
- Withdrawn to receive an emissions offsetting certificate.
- Leveraged in Decentralized Climate Finance (Cli-fi) use cases developed by ClimateCoin or third parties.
THE COMPONENTS
ClimaT.
ClimaT is our governance token. Its role is to regulate anything from the kind of carbon credits that can back new ClimateCoins to the ecosystem governance decisions, such as tokenization fees or interest rates.
THE COMPONENTS
Different usages for ClimaT.
Tokens give users more power to interact with the products and facilitates distribution and sharing benefits among the shareholders. ClimaT’s role is to regulate anything from the issuance of new ClimateCoins to the ecosystem governance decisions.
THE COMPONENTS
CO2 Fund.
A fund for projects that contribute to the Sustainable Development Goals.
THE COMPONENTS
CO2 Fund for SDG projects.
This fund allocates and manages financing to different SDG projects which tokenizes their offchain credits as fungible ClimateCoins. It redistributes the earnings generated from the trading of carbon credits.
THE COMPONENTS
Climate Crowd.
Our crowdlending platform for climate projects.
THE COMPONENTS
Fund climate projects with Climate Crowd.
Climate Crowd is our crowdlending platform for climate projects. It allows funding directly by a large and diverse group of people that lend small amounts of money to a company in exchange for a financial return specified in the loan agreement. Crowdlending is a model that enables funding without requesting a loan under the conditions of traditional banking.
THE COMPONENTS
D-MRV Methodology.
Digital monitoring, reporting, verification and registry.
THE COMPONENTS
Data is key to climate.
Digital Measurement, Reporting, Verification and Registry allows climate project developers to mine and generate ClimateCoins in real time. It operates sensors that monitor the energy that has stopped being emitted using unsustainable sources, consequently generating carbon credits.
THE PROBLEM WE ADDRESS
Shine a light in the darkness of climate finance.
The inefficiency of current actions and the constant deterioration of our planet make it crucial that new initiatives focused on ensuring climate balance be developed.
CRITICAL BURDENS OF CLIMATE FINANCE
Limited access to funding for SDG projects.
The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a call to action to end poverty, protect the planet and ensure that by 2030 all people enjoy peace and prosperity. Projects that seek to advance the SDGs bring multiple positive impacts, yet their access to funding is currently very limited.
Intermediation.
In traditional markets, commodity producers see their profit margins reduced for the benefit of intermediaries. In the context of carbon credits, lower profit margins limit project developers’ ability to protect the planet.
Lack of transparency.
Opaque price discovery and transaction costs generate a lack of trust in the carbon market. Investors need a guarantee that their money will fund their chosen climate action project, and that their investment will be used to increase impact.
Climate asset price discovery.
Discerning between prices and understanding cost differences can be difficult. In this confusing environment, investors are likely to feel frustrated and give up.
Monitoring, reporting and verification costs.
Reporting, Monitoring and verifying carbon credits give developers the necessary monetization. But the high costs and difficulty to get funded puts the ability to perpetuate their projects at risk.
WHY CLIMATECOIN
Here is our firm stance against the climate threat.
The footprint we want to leave behind.
Algorand.
We work with the world’s most decentralized, scalable, secure, and carbon-neutral blockchain infrastructure.
Mitigation compliance.
All projects are assessed by vetted third party verifiers, with supply quality and integrity as CCP or ITMOS, further enhanced by transparent governance.
Value chain proposition.
A percentage of every ClimateCoin financial transaction is distributed to the original creators of the carbon credits tokenized as ClimateCoins, so they can also benefit from the future profits of the carbon credits they created.
Governance and team.
We use cases with redistribution mechanisms for project developers, and an internationally recognized team specialized in climate finance and blockchain.
